AIR FRESHENERS
GUID-8940B056-F335-4295-BC30-943B98365DDF
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could affect the
vehicle interior. If you use an air freshener, take the
following precautions:
. Hanging-type air fresheners can cause permanent
discoloration when they contact vehicle interior
surfaces. Place the air freshener in a location that
allows it to hang free and not contact an interior
surface.
. Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the
vents. These products can cause immediate
damage and discoloration when spilled on interior
surfaces.
Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions before using air fresheners.
FLOOR MATS

The use of genuine NISSAN floor mats (if equipped)
can extend the life of your vehicle carpet and make it
easier to clean the interior. Regardless of what mats
are used, be sure they are fitted for your vehicle and
are properly positioned in the foot well to prevent
interference with pedal operation. Mats should be
maintained with regular cleaning and replaced if they
become excessively worn.

Example
This vehicle includes a front floor mat bracket to act as
a floor mat positioning aid. NISSAN floor mats have
been specially designed for your vehicle model. The
driver’s floor mat has a grommet hole incorporated in it.
Position the mat by placing the floor mat bracket hook
through the floor mat grommet hole while centering the
mat in the foot area.
Periodically check that the mats are properly posi-
tioned.
GLASS

Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust film from
the glass surfaces. It is normal for glass to become
coated with a film after the vehicle is parked in the hot
sun. Glass cleaner and a soft cloth will easily remove
this film.
CAUTION:
When cleaning the inside of the windows, do not
use sharp-edged tools, abrasive cleaners or
chlorine-based disinfectant cleaners. They could
damage the electrical conductors, such as rear
window defogger elements.
The inside of the front door glass is treated with a UV
cut coating. When cleaning the inside of the front door
glass, remove dirt, dust, etc. immediately with a soft
cloth moistened with cold or warm water.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage or deterioration of the UV cut
coating, observe the following.
. When the front door glass is heavily soiled,
do not open or close the window glass.
. When cleaning the front door glass, do not
use glass cleaners containing polishing
compounds (abrasives) or alcohol based
cleaners.
. Do not clean the window glass using a cloth
to which sand, etc. has adhered.
SEAT BELTS

WARNING:
. Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in the
retractor.
. Never use bleach, dye or chemical solvents
to clean the seat belts, since these materials
may severely weaken the seat belt webbing.
The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping them with a
sponge dampened in a mild soap solution.
Allow the belts to dry completely in the shade before
using them. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-6).)
